Excellent
The Definition of Fine Dining!
The place is quite refreshingly different from any other I have seen around here. It is big and airy and there is a lot of natural light which immediately makes you very comfortable.
The seating is well spaced out and the service is excellent! The waiters are knowledgeable and very often their recommendations are the best thing to go by because of the variety in the menu. I did that for the first few visits and was not disappointed at all!
I am a big fan of the Mediterranean cuisine and love the 'Tapas' that these guys make. Tapas being an assorted collection of breads and cheese and dips along with olives and pickled peppers.
I cannot pick one particular dish that I loved because there were so many and all of them done excellently!
This has become my favourite restaurant in Bangalore by far and everyone who I have taken there seem to agree.
It is an excellent choice if you want to make someone feel special at a dinner or a lunch. The entire dining experience is just perfect. This is the definition of fine dining!
And if this was not enough, they have 3 other eateries in the same building and the 'Jacket Room' is supposed to take fine dining to the extreme.
An average meal for two with drinks and dessert will be about Rs. 1500/- but it will be worth every rupee spent.

My Favourite Restaurant in Bangalore!
Firstly, a little clarification, 'F & B' is the group of eating places that exist in this building just off St. Marks Road. There is a restaurant called 'Bouquet', a lounge / pub called 'Madira', a completely exclusive extreme fine dining place called 'The Jacket Room' and a pastry shop called 'La Pastrie' or something like that ... these French spellings always put me in a fix.
My review is for the restaurant 'Bouquet' that belongs to this group.

Good
Mangalore food like it should be made!
After quite a few claims by 'Coastal' and 'Mangalorean' restaurants in the city, this is one that actually lives up to its name!
Mangalore Pearl was a chance find and from there on, its the only Mangalorean place in Bangalore yet (other than my house of course ;)) that I will recommend to anyone ...
The ambiance isn't the best in the world and it doesn't sport any fancy decor but it is clean and nice and homely and that is all I am looking for!
Start with the Coccum Juice (Binda) and try to eat as much of the traditional food as you can ... the Sheyyos and the Sannas and the Neer Dosas with the obvious Mutton curry. Also the Pork Bafat ... that can't be skipped! Sannas and Pork Bafat make the classic Mangy cuisine addictive :)
Overall it is a stunning place to go to food wise and you won't regret it! I am not so much of a sea food freak so I haven't really tried much of it though the prawns are quite nice ... (see I get enough sea food at home ... so I don't bother with it outside!)
This place is very easy on your wallet and a meal for two with extra servings of coccum juice can easily be accommodated for under 350 rupees!
